Much thicker than dielectric silicon grease? when would you use this instead?

I would say its thicker, more of a paste. Brake caliper slide pens, but I use it a lot to lube us rubber mounts. Helps slide things in. Also, can be used to an extent to create a water barrier. I would suggest you watch ericrthecarguy YouTube video on brakes. It will show it main application.

A little better than common electrical tape over time - worse with heat. Does seem to have some sort of oil based agent in it that makes it a little hardier than electrical. Try ripping it off like a band-aid.

I do not believe that silicone is meant for direct heat. I would not suggest it :)

You can use any polish but some work better than others. The thicker the better.

I talked to the Icon tech support today and he told me not to use silicone based product. He said their 219167 is a wax based product.

Yes ... Dielectric grease which is safe on electric terminals. Metal, rubber, plastic, brake systems and ignition systems too. I prefer the clear 3M. Jer

My only experience with this grease is applying it to the sliding parts in my M1 Garand and the slide on my Colt 45 Government Model. It works just fine for that purpose. It seems too thick to apply to the bore unless your intention is long term storage.

It does not state 100% pure, but having used it, I conclude that it is indeed 100% Pure (Food Grade) Silicone Grease. It is not in a liquid state. While it has varied applicable uses, it is intended for applications such as scuba equipment o-rings and other rubber applications which the use of other lubricants would result in a breakdown of the rubber parts. It is used specifically in those applications intended for breathing apparatus and which the use of other types of lubricants would cause harm to the individual due to their compositions (not Food Grade).

This is a non-conductive silicone grease. I do not see a problem as long as you do not put grease between battery terminal and cable end. Just coat the outside.

Apply lubricant to the O ring (silicon grease), and this should make it easier to put it back together

This grease is non-conductive, so it can be used in applications like you describe. It's appropriate for when you want lubricating properties, like a spark plug boot, or moisture resistance, like in a light socket exposed to some moisture (think automotive tail lights, or electrical connectors). It's viscosity is thin enough that as long as the connector pins fit tightly, or the contacts in the socket are spring loaded, then the grease will be easily pushed out of the way allowing the contact to be made.

I'm pretty sure it's the same stuff only in a bigger and more economical tube rather than those little tubes when labled for bulbs. I use this"grease" on the threads to all my indoor light bulbs so than they will be easier to remove next time and I'm going to use it on automotive bulbs too.Both tubes are labeled "dielectric" .

This is much more slippery. Vasoline is tachy and oil based. This product is much thicker. It goes on and lasts longer. Most circumstances don't need this. Mostly for automotive work with things like lubricating rubber window run channels and also certain brake parts. I love using it for things around the house like door hinges.

This is a very thin solution , it appears like a solvent mostly , like I said is good probably for micro mechanic like watches , I used to synthetic car oil for my folding knives. Please check on you tube some reviews of this to get yourself more clear about . Good luck

This will mix with exiting grease in a bearing or other lube point. It is very thick and stays in place for a long time.
